The 95th percentile exposure for CPs did not exceed the reference dose.Accelerating optical beams exhibit exotic features, such as nondiffractive propagation, self-acceleration, and self-healing, which have led their use in a wide range of photonics applications. However, spatial light modulator-based generators of such beams suffer from narrow operational bandwidth, high cost, low diffraction efficiency, and limited integration capability. Although recent metasurface-based approaches have yielded generators with significantly improved bandwidths and integration capacities, the resultant devices usually have ultrashort working distances and limited control over characteristic beam parameters, which decreases their utility in optical imaging and manipulation applications. Herein, we describe a synthetic-phase metasurface-based approach that overcomes these problems and increases the degrees of freedom to enable effective control of beam parameters by integrating a cubic phase profile and the phase of a Fresnel holographic lens into a single metasurface. We demonstrate this approach by using the synthetic metasurface to generate a series of Airy beams with controllable focal length (i.e., working distance), narrowed beam width, and extended propagation distance. Crucially, these beam parameters are fully adjustable, which makes these focal-length-modifiable Airy beams particularly appealing for use in high-resolution, large field-of-view imaging, and deep-penetration optical manipulation. Furthermore, we show that imposing the phase of a Dammann grating into a synthetic metasurface generates a 1 × 4 array of Airy beams that exhibit the aforementioned optical properties. These findings suggest that synthetic-phase metasurfaces may significantly broaden the application of accelerating optical beams in various fields, such as light-sheet microscopy, super-resolution stochastic optical-reconstruction microscopy, laser fabrication, and parallel processing and in the development of optical tweezers for use with live samples.Fuel starvation at the anode of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell can lead to the increase of anode potential and the reversal of cell voltage followed by water electrolysis and carbon corrosion. A material-based approach (with high active water electrolysis catalysts) does not have much influence on the electrochemical performance, and carbon corrosion can be effectively avoided compared with the complex active control system. However, the membrane electrode assembly shows poor reversal tolerant performance during the hydrogen starvation test in previous studies, and the degradation mechanism is unclear. Therefore, reversal tolerant anode electrodes are designed in this article, and the voltage decrease mechanism is investigated comprehensively. The results exhibit that the increase of anode potential is mainly caused by the increase of mass transport resistance. Additionally, the voltage reversal time can be up to 5020 min, and the degradation rate of cell voltage at 1.2 A cm-2 can be as low as 0.12% h-1 after the first fuel starvation test.G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) is activated by extracellular signals. After their function at plasma membrane, GPCRs are internalized to be desensitized, while emerging evidence suggests that some GPCRs maintain their activity even after internalization. The endosomal trafficking pathway of a prototypic GPCR, β adrenergic receptor 2 (B2AR), is in the range of several hours, however, spatiotemporal B2AR activity during this long-term endosomal trafficking pathway has not been characterized yet. Here, we analyze an agonist-induced real-time B2AR activity and its downstream function at the level of individual vesicles, utilizing a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based B2AR biosensor and cAMP reporters tethered at different trafficking stages of endosomes. Our results report that the internalized B2ARs sustain the activity and maintain the production of cAMP for several hours during the endosomal trafficking pathway. Temporal kinetics of B2AR activity is mathematically well explained by our active-vesicle population model modified from the Ricker model. Therefore, our GPCR monitoring system and a new kinetics model can be applied to understand the spatiotemporal GPCR activity and its downstream function during the endosomal trafficking pathway.Hydroxylation of cyclohexane with m-chloroperbenzoic acid was examined in the presence of an iron(III) complex supported by a trianionic planar tetradentate ligand. The present reaction system shows a high turnover number of 2750 with a high product selectivity of alcohol (93%). The turnover frequency was 0.51 s-1, and the second-order rate constant (k) for the C-H bond activation of cyclohexane was 1.08 M-1 s-1, which is one of the highest values among the iron complexes in the oxidation of cyclohexane so far reported. The present catalytic system can be adapted to the hydroxylation of substrates having only primary C-H bonds such as 2,2,3,3-tetramethylbutane as well as gaseous alkanes such as butane, propane, and ethane. this website The involvement of an iron(III) acyl peroxido complex as the reactive species was suggested by spectroscopic measurements of the reaction solution.Seasonal hypoxia is a serious threat to coastal ecosystems. This study on hypoxia in Long Island Sound (LIS), a large urbanized estuary, focuses on responses to managed nitrogen load reductions and climate change. At the analyzed station in western LIS, warming in bottom waters (0.8 °C per decade) favors hypoxia. Total nitrogen concentrations have decreased (0.06 mg L-1 per decade) with load reductions, but no linear temporal trend in chlorophyll is discernible. Bottom dissolved oxygen has increased (0.48 mg L-1 per decade), despite warming-induced solubility decreases (0.13 mg L-1 per decade). Decreasing trends in hypoxic area and volume (100 km2 and 1 km3 per decade) reflect improved conditions and are coincident with reducing loads. Regressions link hypoxic extent to nitrogen loads, chlorophyll, salinity, and winds. Though mitigation has reduced hypoxia, these improvements will not be sustained in the warming climate without continued intervention. The warming-induced oxygen solubility decrease forecasted for 2099 (0.
